Probably John XXIII (Woot! Let's hear it for the Second Ecumenical Council of the Vatican! woot!)
Least favorite? Alexander VI, member of the corrupt Borgia clan, father of the infamous Lucrezia Borgia, and all around perv. Thanks a lot, Alex, for giving people for centuries to come reasons to despise Catholicism. Sure, you were a product of the time, but even for the fifteenth century you sucked.

Certainly not the present one.
I'm partial to some of the early Leos. :o)

Pope Pius X rocked the house!!

So far in my life and the popes before, I would say the current pope is very good and will probably be my favorite until another comes along that I like more which I doubt. Benedict 16 makes decisions faster and moves the Church more decisively with a strong hand and a clear vision.

John XXIII the 1st
He was a pirate before becoming pope

I am most familiar with Karol Wojtyla, so I would have to say him.

John Paul II
He was more like a grampa than a pope.
He had that cool charm to him.

pope john paul the second. i met him when i was a little girl,it was kind of sureal.
by Cheshire Puss on May 16th, 2008
Oh, without any doubt Saint John XII. He set the modern standard for all Popes. His saintliness has been imitated but most of them, but never matched.

Mine was John Paul II.

JP2...

Saint Peter.
Anyone who can mess up as much as he did and then still make a beautiful contribution to the Church of Jesus Christ is a wonderful role model for sinners like me.
With love in Christ.

Jesus!
My 2 cents.

Either John Paul II or one of the renaissance popes - for different reasons
by 23Skidoo on April 24th, 2008
John XXIII, I (or Sr.)
by Oor Galooly - on April 24th, 2008
I only really knew John Paul 2 so I would have to say him. He did lots of good for the Catholic Church during his tenure and he is deeply missed.

I don't have a favourite Pope.
by RosieGHM Jetpacker on April 17th, 2008
I am not Catholic so I am not knowledgeable about the differences among them. :)
by R U Sirius on April 18th, 2008
The last Pope John Paul because my neighbor looked exactly like him and I had some good times with that.

John Allen Pallos, cause he has the name of famous athiest mathematician.
by Vampyre Bat on October 17th, 2008
There has been one great one in my life. John Paul II. But, if Benedict XVI gets to hang around a little longer he may ultimately do more good for the church by providing a steady, traditional hand, and taking out a whole heap of trash that has been stinking up the church for far too long. Especially in the maverick American church. We seem to have forgotten the meaning of the word obedience. To which I say. Bring it on Benedict...We've had enough it is time to clean this house out.
by Gonzo on April 24th, 2008
I dont like any of them.
by Hypatia on December 7th, 2008
Without any doubt Saint John XII. He set the modern standard for all Popes. His saintliness has been imitated but most of them, but never matched. If you are a good catholic you should read about his holy deeds and imitate him.
